Sabrosona,
The LP Salsa model is sometimes hard to find...There are other posts in which we discuss the pros and cons of wood and fiberglass...One thing...be aware, and hopefully you notice that, that the congas in a store are normally not tuned.....Beware that based on your hands, etc, etc, your tuning might not be someone else's tuning...(Some people will argue that in most cases it will not matter: a good tuning is good for everyone but is not the case always....)
Have you tried Pearl Elites?????? The wood models are excellent choice for a good price....If you want fiberglass and want to play seated...try the new Pearl Elite Bobby Allende Signature congas...They are in fiberglass and are 28 inches tall for the seated player.....One thing...they come with Remo Fyberskins from the factory...If you like synthetic heads, that I personally like, you have a good deal there.... I think you should check the Pearl outs...The LPs are good but .....
Saludos!
